First and foremost is important to understand that all projects are exercises in managing change. The key to consistent delivery of successful projects therefore lies in the ability to account for and/or manage variations as they occur. Senior management failure is the #1 cause of poor project outcomes. Edwards Demming.

However, as fast as some design solutions change a single solution family might get built quicker than the one we make trying to anticipate how it might change. If the family is rendered irrelevant as soon as the design changes then investing a lot of time in making it parametric may not make sense. stimmo520 said.

Change the scale of the view to make it easier to constrain, select geometry. Dont include parameters in families that dont change geometry, instead put them in project templates and apply them to the categories they affect. On a somewhat related note, is there a way to change or get rid of added object styles in a parent family?
